There are two categories of people in this world; those who have heard The Coup and those who need to. In 1993 The Coup released their first full-length album, Kill My Landlord . At the time of the album, The Coup was comprised of lead-vocalist/frontman Boots Riley , rapper E-Roc and DJ Pam the Funkstress . This album set the stage for the The Coup's characteristic political and socially-conscious lyrics that manage to keep a sly sense of wit.
